Time for Growing

Today was hard. I have been tired all day. This getting up and taking kids to school is actually harder than just going yourself. I pack lunch and load everyone into the car and no matter how early I get up we always seem to be rushing. Logan is such a morning person though. He always wakes up happy and smiling. He greets me at the door every morning, " Hi mama" and asks me to move the baby gate so he can pillage the house.

Vanessa takes after me though. She is a bear in the morning. Always grumpy and wanting to sleep longer. I trained her right! She is so smart and verbally quick. She has an explanation for everything. Here she is convincing me that we should keep her little bike and her new one because she can ride one in the yard and the other on the trail. She thinks things out and always has a solution to any objection I make.


So very serious, and pretty. Tonight I led worship again at church and my headset kept coming in and out. I felt like a total failure. I had no control whatsoever. No one on stage could hear me and I couldn't hear myself. I was up in the house though. The crowd could hear. At least it is over now. Everyone else said it went well, but I was there right in the middle. It was a stretch, but at least I know now that I can do it. Now I would like to settle in to my normal role as singer. I might get to do some recording. This guy wants me to record a song for his musical. He's making a demo for it so we will see how far this goes. I up for it. Right now I am exhausted, but I am happy that I get these chances to prove myself. If I never tried I would never know. I am too much of an optimist to miss the positive in this experience. Next time will be even better.
